This year’s 118th meeting of the American Philosophical Association Eastern Division will be a combination of in-person and virtual components, to bring together as many members of the APA to share ideas, solve problems and explore new teaching methods across the discipline.
With a Teaching Hub, in-person and recorded lectures and addresses, business meetings, a prize reception and poster sessions, the 2022 APA Eastern Division Meeting explores the expanding and evolving field of Philosophy for all students, researchers and professionals involved in the field.
The Taylor & Francis Philosophy portfolio offers insight into foundational and niche aspects of the subject, from books such as Introduction to Logic, now in its 14th edition, and Philosophy through Film, now in its 4th edition, to journals such as British Journal for the History of Philosophy and Philosophical Psychology. Our portfolio also includes The Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy which provides access to over 2,800 articles that have been edited for level and consistency by a team of renowned subject experts.
APA-E Attendees (Virtual or in Baltimore) please use Code APA2022 to receive the meeting discount on all Routledge books.
